I saw this some time ago in the Washington Post in a piece by Richard Harrington on Bon Jovi when they were at MCI Center in December. Since Doc is now Lovehammer's manager, this paragraph jumped out. There is a paragraph about how well BJ has done by thinking globally. Wonder what Doc has in store for our Lovehammers.

"Thank God for our former manager [Doc McGhee]," Bon Jovi says. "He said, 'We're going everywhere,' and we were eager because we were young kids at the time and hadn't been anywhere and never dreamt of going anywhere. . . . I remember specifics about very big bands in America that couldn't play a bar outside of the country, so when America does turn its back on you -- and radio is fickle -- they have nowhere else to go. We were able to go to South America, Australia, Europe, Asia and Africa and come back as the tides turned. Thank God he had that insight and foresight."
